Unreal: On Day Following Libya Assassinations, Obama Skips Another Intel Briefing
Washington Post via http://townhall.com ^ | 09/13/2012 | Guy Benson

How long had it been since President Obama attended his daily intelligence meeting in the lead-up to the Sept. 11 attacks on U.S. diplomatic facilities in Egypt and Libya? After all, our adversaries are known to use the anniversary of 9/11 to target the United States. According to the public schedule of the president, the last time the Obama attended his daily intelligence meeting was Sept. 5 — a week before Islamist radicals stormed our embassy in Cairo and terrorists killed our ambassador to Tripoli. The president was scheduled to hold the intelligence meeting at 10:50 a.m. Wednesday, the day after the attacks, but it was canceled so that he could comfort grieving employees at the State Department — as well he should. But instead of rescheduling the intelligence briefing for later in the day, Obama apparently chose to skip it altogether and attend a Las Vegas fundraiser for his re-election campaign. One day after a terrorist attack.

This filthy pig needs to be tried for treason!

I hope his worst fear overtakes him.

I am the great and powerful Obama, and I don't need no stinking briefings!

Speechless.

I’m sure we’ll be hearing this for weeks, just like “My Pet Goat.”

If someone else dies, it is now his fault, through his incompetence.

He’s a pantomime president. If his handlers want him to know something, they’ll feed it to him through his teleprompter.

As*hole comes more to mind (over empty chair).

This Imbecile just doesn’t give a crap about anything American. He is too busy following his own desires.

May he be relegated to the dustbin of history.

How do you weaken America for destruction? One dereliction of duty at a time. Inaction IS action in Obamaworld.

What difference does it make? He’s too busy doing blow and porking some “body man” to pay attention to these events. Valerie Jarrett is the de facto president. The question is not whether Obama attended the security briefings but whether Valerie did, since she’s clearly running the show.

To call him an idiot would be an insult to idiots world wide.

He doesn’t care. Not important in his worldview

Even after it was widely dispersed yesterday that he attended less than half of the intel briefings, one would have thought that “even if only for appearances”, he would have wanted to avoid this self-inflicted criticism. Obviously he does not give a royal rat turd what his subjects think of this deriliction.

He is doing this to show that he can get away with anything. He is taunting all of us... including Romney. His problem is that many people are seeing him for who he really is. Some in the MSM are even turning... slowly but they are getting mad too.
